Friends of Anthony Sutton, based in a city associated with Haywood County, was the only political committee in the county with expenses during October.

It spent $3,812 on four vendors during the time period.

The largest expense was for Technology & Office Expenses to Postcardmania, which is based in Clearwater.

What’s known as “dark money”, which comes from political non-profits and shell corporations, has greatly increased expenditures and donations in recent elections to record-breaking highs.

Political campaign financial data is often updated, leading to a sometimes incomplete picture of a committee or candidate's finances.
